A Whole-of-Government Approach to Countering Cartels: The Role of JIATF-CC
As cartel activity grows more sophisticated and widespread, the U.S. government is shifting toward a more integrated, intelligence‑driven approach to countering transnational criminal networks. This latest report from IDGA examines the creation of Joint Interagency Task Force–Counter Cartel (JIATF‑CC) and how it is reshaping coordination between military, law enforcement, and intelligence agencies to disrupt cartel operations at scale.
Highlights include:
- How JIATF‑CC is enabling a true "whole‑of‑government" strategy—aligning resources across agencies to identify, disrupt, and dismantle cartel networks.
- Early operational insights demonstrate the impact of centralized intelligence, improved U.S.–Mexico coordination, and a shift toward targeting entire cartel ecosystems.
